Planting & Care
Sow Janet Sweet Pea seeds outdoors in early spring, as soon as the soil can be worked, or start indoors 4-6 weeks before the last frost for earlier blooms. Nick or soak seeds for 24 hours before planting to improve germination. Plant seeds about 1 inch deep and keep the soil consistently moist until seedlings emerge. Provide a trellis or support for the vines to climb.
Water regularly during dry spells and mulch to keep roots cool. Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continued blooming. Sweet peas prefer cooler temperatures and may decline in intense summer heat. For best results, plant in a location with good air circulation to prevent disease.
